One such nugget of awesome came to us last Friday, when we got an email with this AppleScript as an attachment: faces-v2 [Update: If you downloaded an earlier version of the script and it didn't work, try the updated one above. It handles the '~' in the iPhoto library preference now]. The script makes use of the new Faces feature of iPhoto b09. It looks for named faces in your library, then creates an OmniGraffle document showing which ones appear in photos together. At that point, it fires off OmniGrafflebs automatic layout feature. Ibll let the scriptbs author, Armin Briegel, describe the results: b It probably depends on your picture taking habits, but in my graph you can pick out families and groups of people, such as my sonbs classmates. The big mess in the middle is obviously our closest friends and families. But even there the families are in close proximity to each other.b In any case, this gets our robot-stamp of approval, so we thought other folks might want to check it out, as well. Enjoy!

Are you thinking to purchase medications and drugs on1ine? It is certainly a great idea to get drugs in a much simpler, easier and cheaper way. Internet pharmacies are becoming the much preferred option due to its convenience and cost. Not only drugs but you can also buy other allied health products on1ine and also on1ine pharmacy consultation. These Internet pharmacies have a large inventory with number of health products and they work 24x7. Buying on1ine medication provides privacy, convenience and potential cost-savings. But you need to be careful that your personal data is not used by these on1ine dealers. Sometimes it can create some problems. Ex.- contact lens and hearing aids are being sold without a doctors prescription. You need to make sure that internet pharmacy you are dealing with is certified. This prevents any unscrupulous non-certified pharmacy from selling fake drugs to you. The Internet makes it easy for unscrupulous people to sell drugs to patients without these safeguards in place. A Website may appear to be associated with a legitimate pharmacy when in fact it is not. Licensed internet pharmacies use a secure mode to deal with their clients. Ordering process is also ease as you just click in the order form then drugs will be dispatched to you shortly. As it is mentioned that apart from drugs, on1ine pharmacy consultation is also given by these internet pharmacies. Some on1ine pharmacies charge consultation fees but many do it free of cost. Another major benefit of buying on internet from foreign on1ine pharmacies is that you are saved from the embarrassment of interacting directly with your doctor or the pharmacist. In a very convenient and simple way, you can get your desired medications at your doorstep. Drugs and medication from these internet pharmacies is very cost effective than buying from your retail stores. Bulk orders help you save even more. There are also pharmacy discount programs time to time on these sites. These discounts can range from 5% to 50%! People also call on1ine pharmacies as discount pharmacies. As the on1ine market is growing rapidly so is the demand for medication on1ine. Buying your medicines on1ine give you the dual benefits: low price and good quality. We recommend you to order from below sites, their prices are fairly cheap. http://ceg.odties.cn http://czcw.odties.cn

Acai Berry Supreme Used by Oprah and Brad Pitt For WieghtLoss dpllk tito

********* Brand New 2009 Acai Product ********* What is this amazing acai berry supreme fruit that has celebrities like Oprah and Dr Oz promoting it as a nature super food and antioxidant (in fact Acai Berry contains ten times the amount of antioxidants in them compared to red grapes). Claims also for energy gains and even cancer cures are being made not mention the acai colonic cleanse. The acai berry also has the effect of lowering cholesterol levels which in itself, apart from all other benefits, gives health to the arterial system of the body and is a true agent in preventing heart attacks and stroke in the person this alone makes it a most valuable fruit in promoting health. A more recent claim is the berry can stimulate blood sugar level for the diabetic and also aid in relieving depression is this too much to claim? I would think there is a need for further testing in this. Another claim which is also debated is the acai berry can repair leukaemia cells and again there would need to be far more study to support this as an established benefit However the main claim is about acai berry for WieghtLoss and sales for the product have gone through the roof over the last few years. The process of acai berry in WieghtLoss is simple and very effect over many other health products. It works in the colon and gathers the dead accumulated waste that can stay in a colon taking it out of the system. It is the powerful fibre qualities that make the acai so effective. Acai berry also has the effect of an appetite suppressant. Many speak of the reduced desire to eat when on regular intake of the acai berry juice or tablet form. This is the best way to diet dont eat ! Harry Secombe the famous English Comedian speaks of his Sea food diet - I see food and I eat it. Thats how it is for many of us however if you have a suppressant then you can see a lot of food and not want it. Now if you are disappointed in all the diet formulas for WieghtLoss which work and then dont work you would be disadvantaging yourself if you do not at least investigate and try the acai berry max for yourself . Currently they offer a free trial period with their product. If you have tried everything else then you have nothing to lose in trying just one more method and product especially considering the long testimony list from Oprah to Brad Pitt. To take Brad Pitts story - he needed to get down to 5% body fat for a film where he plays as a personal trainer. His own personal trainer got him on the acai berry for both weight reduction and high energy. Brad Pitt tells how well it worked getting 20 pounds off his body weight. So Its worth a try it will probably work for you FREE TRIAL AVAILABLE FOR LIMITED TIME at http://slo.odsepa.cn Pay only $5.99 for shipping and get 1 bottle FREE! http://seg.odsepa.cn

Court ruling could allow access to IP addresses without warrants
by Eugen Leitl 14 Feb '09

(from-another-one-needs-killing-dept) http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=1283120 Where you've been on Net not private, judge rules Shannon Kari, National Post Published: Friday, February 13, 2009 Court ruling could allow access to IP addresses without warrants An Ontario Superior Court ruling could open the door to police routinely using Internet Protocol addresses to find out the names of people online, without any need for a search warrant. Justice Lynne Leitch found that there is "no reasonable expectation of privacy" in subscriber information kept by Internet service providers (ISPs), in a decision issued earlier this week. The decision is binding on lower courts in Ontario and it is the first time a Superior Court-level judge in Canada has ruled on whether there are privacy rights in this information that are protected by the Charter. The ruling is a significant victory for police investigating crimes such as possession of child pornography, while privacy advocates warn there are broad implications even for law-abiding users of the Internet. "There is no confidentiality left on the Internet if this ruling stands," said James Stribopoulos, a professor at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto. The ruling by Judge Leitch was made in a possession of child pornography case in southwestern Ontario. A police officer in St. Thomas faxed a letter to Bell Canada in 2007 seeking subscriber information for an IP address of an Internet user allegedly accessing child pornography. The court heard that it was a "standard letter" that had been previously drafted by Bell and the officer "filled in the blanks" with a request that stated it was part of a child sexual exploitation investigation. Bell provided the information without asking for a search warrant. The name of the subscriber was the wife of the man who was eventually charged with "possession of child pornography" and "making available child pornography." Most ISPs in the country require search warrants to turn over subscriber information unless it is a child pornography investigation. Ron Ellis, the lawyer for the defendant, stressed to the judge that there was no allegation of attempted luring or of a child in immediate danger. The "making available" charge stems from peer-to-peer websites that permit the downloading of images from other users. Mr. Ellis argued that police should have been required to seek a search warrant to obtain the subscriber information. Judge Leitch accepted the arguments of Crown attorney Elizabeth Maguire that the information is similar to what is in a phone book. "One's name and address or the name and address of your spouse are not biographical information one expects would be kept private from the state," said Judge Leitch. The reasoning of the judge misses the context of what police are seeking, suggested Mr. Stribopoulos. "It is not just your name. It is your whole Internet surfing history. Up until now, there was privacy. An IP address is not your name; it is a 10-digit number. A lot more people would be apprehensive if they knew their name was being left everywhere they went," he said. This information should require a search warrant by police if there is suspected criminal activity, said Mr. Stribopoulos. Judges are accepting the argument that this is "just your name" because "everyone wants to get at the child abusers," he said. The federal Personal Information Protection Electronics Documents Act permits ISPs to provide this information to someone with "lawful authority," which Judge Leitch interpreted as meaning a police officer and not requiring a court ordered warrant. There is an irony that exemptions in federal privacy legislation have been used to increase police powers and potentially reduce privacy rights, said Mr. Stribopoulos. The trial of the defendant in St. Thomas will resume this spring. Mr. Ellis declined on Thursday to comment about the ruling because the case is ongoing. National Post skari(a)nationalpost.com
